What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • SHMT1 polymorphismGenetic

    It is to identify the role of SHMT1polymorphism in PD and examine the relationship between it and Severity of PD.

Study groups in NCT04706065
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
GROUP 1Group 1 (patients with PD) All participants will be subjected to thorough history taking, full clinical and neurological examination. Diagnosis of PD by using Brain Bank Criteria for diagnosis of Parkinson Disease , assessment of the severity of PD by using PDRS and evaluation of cognitive functions using MMSE.
Receives: Genetic: SHMT1 polymorphism
Group 2Group 2 (controls) All participants will be subjected to thorough history taking, full clinical and neurological examination.
Receives: Genetic: SHMT1 polymorphism

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Study the Role of SHMT1 Polymorphism in Parkinson Disease, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Effat a Tony, MD (+201097330309, effattony@aun.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

polymorphism of SHMT1gene (time frame: one year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
